Defining Testing Methodology

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2

Describe the general methodology that your team will use for testing. For example, your approach to testing schema changes might be to configure an isolated domain in the test lab where schema changes can be applied without affecting other lab tests. This section of the test plan might address the following:

  • The domain architecture used for testing

  • The tools and techniques used to conduct the tests or to measure results

  • Automated techniques you plan to use during testing

For information about methodologies for testing application compatibility, see "Planning and Testing for Application Deployment" in this book.
